Chapter 17 Bai Daochuan ambush

Although there were several rains on the way, Yang Guang still transported tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass and countless weapons to the Shuozhou front line on time. When he received the material transported by Yang Guang, Yang Shuang was overjoyed and immediately looked at Yang Guang with admiration.

Yang Shuang was worried that due to the rain, the transportation of grain and grass would be slow, and Sha Bo slightly marched quickly. When Yang Shuang's reinforcements arrived in Shuozhou, hundreds of miles outside Shuozhou had been ravaged by Sha Bo little. Many people fled to Shuozhou City, which greatly increased the pressure on grain in the city and had to squeeze out some military rations to help the people. If Yang Guang's grain and grass came too late, Shuozhou would not be out of food, but it would also restrict the supply of grain and grass. Yang Guang's grain transport team came at the right time.

There were only 200,000 troops in the front line of Shuozhou for hundreds of miles, while the Sui army and more than 300,000 troops in the local prefectures and counties, Yang Shuang was able to deal with it calmly. After Yang Guang's food and grass arrived, Yang Shuang no longer defended the city and began to launch an active attack on Sha Bo. The two sides fought hard on the front line of hundreds of miles and were indistinguishable.

On that day, Yang Shuang found the Shaboluohan Banner in Baidaochuan. He was very happy and led tens of thousands of troops out of Shuozhou Road. He walked for a few days and set up camp on the southern foot of Yinshan, forty miles away from Baidaochuan, and summoned all the generals to discuss matters.

The marching chief manager Li Chongxian suggested: "The Turkic army has always been arrogant. Although Sha Bo suffered a slight loss last year, he always believed that Abo and Datou retreated first. Now the Turks are in danger in Baidaochuan and have strong troops to defend. If they attack them with elite cavalry, they will definitely win a complete victory."

Yang Shuang was not durable for a long time, and Li Chong's suggestion was just right: "Okay, how many people do General Manager Li need?"

This place is still forty miles away from the Turkic army. Too many people have lost their significance for rushing. Li Chong calculated and said, "Five thousand elite cavalry are enough."

Five thousand cavalry? The other generals suddenly turned pale. Sha Boluo had at least 50,000 or 60,000 people in Baidaochuan, and Sha Boluo personally led the army. The five thousand golden wolf guards around him were all blocking ten. Isn’t this a waste of death? Those who originally wanted to follow Li Chong to make meritorious contributions said one after another: "No, this is too risky."

"Adventure! Too adventurous!"

Except for the word "adventure", the other generals bowed their heads and said nothing. A voice suddenly said: "I am willing to go with General Manager Li."

Everyone looked over in surprise and saw that it was the fifteen-year-old King of Jin, Yang Guang, who had just stayed in Shuozhou after Yang Guang had finished transporting the food. This time, he took the initiative to attack the Turks. Yang Guang wanted to follow the army to act together. If someone else was to lead the army, no one would dare to joke about the life of King of Jin. But Yang Shuang was Yang Guang's uncle, and Yang Guang compared Yang Yong's leadership at the age of thirteen. Yang Shuang was harassed and had to nodded in agreement.

When the generals heard that Yang Guang was going, their faces were full of shame. This time, Yang Guang transported grain in time. The generals already had a good impression of Yang Guang. Of course, they could not let the King of Jin take risks, otherwise they would be able to put their faces.

"Your Highness, I am willing to go!"

"Your Highness, I am willing to go!"

...

In the blink of an eye, the generals became more and more eager to rise from the moment they shrank their heads. Yang Shuang glanced at the generals and swept their expressions into their eyes. He knew that most of them were still insincere. If they chose someone who was greedy for life and fear of death, it would be better not to choose. He waved his hand: "The King of Jin is still young, and I don't agree. As for other generals, General Guangda, you can go with General Li, how about you?"

Guangda is the name of General Li Che, who was also a famous general for a while. He is currently the chief minister of the Bingzhou General's Office and assists Yang Guang in guarding Bingzhou. Yang Shuang uses him, which is equivalent to giving his nephew a credit, and also preventing Yang Guang from asking for another request to go to war.

Li Che stood up and said, "The last general will take the order!" He sat down again without saying anything.

"Tonight, Li Chong is the chief and General Li Che is the deputy. He will rush to the Turkic camp together. The rest of the people will be with me. If there is any delay in the fighter's plane, kill!" Yang Shuang said viciously.

The rushing action did not fall on his head, and the generals were slightly disappointed, but most of them breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, Your Highness, King Wei, we will do our best to respond to the two generals."

Sha Boluo's commander's tent was set up in Baidaochuan for half a month. At the beginning, due to the rapid march, the Turks had harvested quite well, so they had already looted many counties on the border of the Sui Dynasty. However, in recent years, the Turks invaded too frequently, and these border cities had not yet recovered. The harvested materials were far from satisfying the appetite of the Turks, so they had to attack the big city of Zhou, and had already captured Xianzhou all the way. When they wanted to continue to attack Shuozhou, the Sui army reinforcements had arrived in time.

Baidaochuan is surrounded by high-quality pastures, where Sha Boluo can attack, retreat, defend, and grazing. Therefore, even though he knew that the Sui Dynasty army had been dispatched, Sha Boluo did not want to retreat.

The five thousand Sui army were all elites carefully selected by Li Chong and Li Che. Before dark, the troops had a full meal and immediately set off quietly. After Li Chong and Li Che left, Yang Shuang also personally commanded the army and then set off.

The army arrived at Baidaochuan. Li Chong looked at the moonlight that appeared in the sky at times and calculated that it was almost just past Yin, and it was when people were most thirsty to sleep. Looking at the unprepared tent of the Turkic people, he was immediately overjoyed. With a wave of his hand, five thousand cavalry quietly touched the Turkic people's camp.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The sound of the horse hooves of the Sui army came to the Turkic camp like a terrible nightmare. Many Turkic people were trampled to death by the horse hooves of the Sui army in their sleep. Countless camp tents were ignited. The awakened Turkic people ran and rushed in the camp like headless flies, and died in the blink of an eye under the spear of the Sui army.

When Sha Bo was aroused by the Golden Wolf Guard beside him, he heard the sound of horse hooves coming and going in the camp and the howling of his subordinates before his death. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He had been attacked by someone after a long battle formation.

"Father Khan, Father Khan, the enemy is coming." A fifteen-and-six-year-old boy walked in panic in the direction of Sha Boluo. It was his youngest son Rangan.

Sha Boluo was surrounded by the Golden Wolf Guard and stood on the back of the horse. After hearing his son's voice, he felt warm: "Don't panic, come to Father Khan."

Rangan approached his father and then calmed down. He was still young and had never killed anyone before. He was just as happy as a pile of grass when he killed civilians in the Sui Dynasty. Yesterday, he clearly heard that the Sui army was still forty miles away, so why did he suddenly appear at night? He was naturally panicked.

Sha Bo has been through a long battle formation and knows that the enemy seems to be very powerful, but in fact, there may not be many people. Seeing that the front camp is in chaos, Su Xing ordered: "Send the order, it is strictly forbidden for everyone to attack the middle camp. Violators will kill the matter."

The quality of the Golden Wolf Guard is indeed not bad. After receiving the order from Sha Boluo, most of the Golden Wolf Guards have turned over and formed a line of defense in the darkness, shooting and killing all those who dare to approach the Central Army. The chaos in the front camp was obviously stopped when it reached the Central Army.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!" The Sui army was chasing the Turks in the front camp in a fierce manner. Countless feather arrows fell from the sky, nailing all the Turks and Sui army to the ground. The Sui army rushed for more than 40 miles, without any armor on their bodies, and could not avoid them in the darkness, and suffered heavy losses.

The Sui army did not expect the Turks to be so cruel, even killing their own people. The Turkic front camp had been disrupted. At least tens of thousands of Turkic people died of misfortune, and more than 10,000 people fled around. If they retreated, the Sui army would have won a great victory, but they had not achieved their full success in the face of such a good opportunity, and neither the officers nor the soldiers were satisfied.

"Concentrate the empty horses and disperse them!"

Li Che quickly thought of a method. Most Turkic people in the front camp died or fled before they had time to ride horses. Now the Sui army has enough horses in their hands, which are just for rushing to the battle. Soon the Sui army collected the horses. When more than 10,000 empty horses rushed towards the Turkic Central Army camp with a overwhelming momentum, even the Golden Wolf Guards dared not block their attacks. Fortunately, the Golden Wolf Guards were already on the horses, and although they were dispersed, there would not be too much casualties. However, there were still some people in the camp behind who had no time to get on the horses and were trampled to death.

The Sui army rushed in along the gap that the horses rushed out, and the army that the Turks had barely organized before was broken by the horses. Although the number was more than that of the Sui army, one or two percent of the combat power could not be exerted, and there were even many people who killed each other in the dark.

When the day was dim, Sha Boluo had the opportunity to reorganize the team. Half of his 60,000 elite troops had lost, and even the Golden Wolf Guards had killed and injured three of them. After half of the battle, the Sui army also suffered nearly more than a thousand casualties. Looking at the enemy army with less than four thousand, Sha Boluo's eyes were about to spit out: "Go ahead, destroy them, no one left."

Although they were surrounded by Turkic people, the Sui army was completely scared, their faces were full of excitement, and Turkic corpses were everywhere. Many Turkic people trampled on each other or killed each other in the dark. On a rough estimate, there were probably no less than 20,000 to 30,000 people. As long as the army came to support, the first merit was achieved this time.

"Kill!" The Sui army chose a direction to break through and stirred up with the Turks again.

"Boom." Just as the Turks were trying to encircle and attack their Sui army, a muffled thunder sound came, and dust flew in the distance, and the whole earth seemed to tremble.

"Great Khan, it's not good. Tens of thousands of Sui troops are running here." An outer scout loudly reported to Sha Boluo.

Sha Bo slightly threw away his armor and had a terrible wound on his back. He was chopped off during a melee last night. Seeing that the wound was like someone else, his whole body was in unbearable pain. He heard this and shook it and almost fell off the horse's back. Two golden wolf guards next to him hurriedly supported him.

"Khan, let's go."

"Yes, Khan, the Han people have something to say that they can keep the green mountains there, and they are not afraid of no firewood. Let's avoid the edge first."

"Sweat..."

The nobles around Sha Boluo were all panicked on their faces, and they all made suggestions to Sha Boluo.

"Let's go." Sha Bo slightly turned his horse's head. He knew that if he didn't leave, he would have to throw away the little power left on his hand.

Sha Bo retreated, and the Turkic army that was besieging the Sui army also hurriedly fled. Li Chong and Li Che hurriedly ordered: "Chasing, don't let Sha Bo Lu run away."

An interesting tracking began. Sha Bo was protected by more than 3,000 golden wolf guards and ran in the front. Behind were about 30,000 remaining Turks, but they were chased by the Sui army with less than 4,000 people.

"Ah!" From time to time, the Turks who were left behind were chased by the Sui army. They screamed and were stabbed off the horse by the Sui army. If they fell to the ground, they would be stepped into meat paste. Behind the Sui army, another brigade of Sui army was following closely.

Although Sha Boluo suffered a lot of more than 30,000 elite soldiers, he was extremely distressed, but he had 200,000 troops this time. As long as he joined the other two groups and fought with the Sui army, it is still unknown who will win. Sha Boluo beat the horse hard, and the most important thing now is to get rid of the pursuit of the Sui army.

"Boom" Another thunder sound came from Bai Daochuan's left, and then dust flew up. A Sui army general Sha Boluo was about to escape and stopped him: "Kill!" Countless shouts of killing came.

"Xilulu." Sha Bo was stunned for a moment and quickly strangled the horse. The horse raised its front hooves high before stopping. A pain came from the wound on its back, and almost threw Sha Bo Li off its horse.

"Go to the right." Without Sha Boluo's instructions, the already scared Turks had turned their horses one after another. Relying on the fast horses, the Sui army on both sides attacked together, and most of his Golden Wolf Guards rushed out. However, many Turkic cavalry were inevitably surrounded by the Sui army and then swallowed them.

"Kill, grab the sand bowl alive!" After a few miles, a dust smoke rose again on the right, and then the sound of horse hooves came. All the remaining Turkic cavalry were shocked, and the Sui army actually ambushed in three groups.

"Go out of the Great Wall." Having no choice but to give up the intention of merging with the other two armies, preparing to escape from the Great Wall before reorganizing the team.

"Khan, you can't walk the Great Wall." This time, Sha Boluo's mount was about to turn around and was stopped by someone. Sha Boluo's eyes fixed and saw that it was An Suijia.

"Get out of the way." Seeing that the Sui army was only a few miles away from him, they were about to catch up. It would be too late to leave. Sha Boliu raised his whip and sucked him hard at An Suiga.

"Papa." Several times, the whip hit An Suiga's hand. An Suiga did not avoid it, and his hand that grabbed Sha Boluo's reins did not let go: "Da Khan, you can't escape back. There is still my 140,000 army in the Great Wall. Once they learn that the Khan escapes first, the morale of the army is floating and the Sui army is defeated by the Sui army, the Turks will be over. Moreover, since the Sui army is ambushing three groups, how can there be no ambushing in the rear?"

"This..." Sha Boluo hesitated immediately.

"Khan, don't listen to his nonsense. The Sui army is chasing us, it will be too late if we don't leave." The Turkic nobles next to him quickly persuaded.
